Ezekiel 29:7-11

The people of Israel leaned on Egypt for support, but Egypt only pierced their hands and shoulder. They leaned on you for support, but you broke and twisted their back.’”

So this is what the Lord GOD says: “I will bring a sword against you. I will destroy all your people and animals.

Egypt will be empty and destroyed. Then they will know that I am the Lord.” God said, “Why will I do these things? Because you said, ‘This is my river. I made this river.’

So I am against you. I am against the many branches of your Nile River. I will destroy Egypt completely. The cities will be empty from Migdol to Aswan and as far as the border of Ethiopia.

No person or animal will pass through Egypt. Nothing will pass through or settle there for 40 years.
